Anthony Davis once again displayed his commanding presence for Team USA in an exhibition match against Australia, outshining his teammates who seemed to struggle with rustiness. Despite the calendar reading July, Davis appears to be operating at playoff intensity.
In Tuesday’s game against Australia, Davis continued to prove why he’s a force to be reckoned with, recording 17 points, 14 rebounds, and two blocks in just 18 minutes of play. Although Team USA managed a 98-92 victory in Abu Dhabi, they faced a nerve-wracking fourth quarter as Australia mounted a comeback, closing a 22-point gap to just four points in the final moments.
